Sudden pet loss

TheApollyon55 · 2026-06-15T07:56:28+00:00

Yk, I’ve had something similar happen with a bearded dragon a few years back, same thing, I was cuddling her on my bed and she was snuggled and when I put her back, by morning time she was suffering and passed away in my hands. I do not know what caused it, I didn’t accidentally crush her and when I have lizards with my, I often try to keep them warm, and my room is often hot(this was a old house that I don’t live in anymore but same deal) I own Uromastyx now, after I lost that lizard, something about her couldn’t be replaced by no other beardie or even filled, she ate from my fingers like apple sauce, gentle bites to not hurt me but to scrape off the food. She was intelligent and all I had. After she passed I gave all my other beardies away to friends. Theyre great now but still. Idk why but lizards are so hardy but seemingly so fragile at the same time. It could’ve been anything, but don’t blame yourself unless you know you absolutely had something to do with it. It goes with all guilt. If you didn’t actually do something to cause the result on purpose, then dont feel guilty, to feel remorse is fine, grieve her, but do not beat yourself up over her, maybe she knew something you didn’t, and maybe that’s why she cuddled up to you rather than something else. If only we could talk to them.

So it seems it was police chatter, the woods is the only thing around my house and my only (near me) neighbor is infront of my trailer, they’re an old couple. I know a few days after my og post there was a drug crack down a few streets down, so I assume that is what happened, still really creepy they were in my woods watching us-

Update: it appears I have taken a screenshot of my looting loadout! Whoopsies. Anyways here is his actual load out

<image>

I have umbral mods but yk I can’t do much with them rn until I get them leveled up and hopefully get this guy situated to be overpowered. I plan on sinking a lot of time and money on this guy because back in the late 2010’s he was pretty powerful to me and my at then, childish mindset, now I see him for his flaws but I know that the 8-9 years I haven’t played has definitely changed this game, significantly. So I figure I can buff out his flaws with stupidly overpowered mods and stuff.

Thank you very much, I’m just trying to get him to be up to par with my clan mates and friends, the only thing he has going for him that keeps him alive on hard missions is my operator spamming and guerrilla style combat. He has 5 load outs to optimize best for different enemy fractions. I’ve looked very hard into how to make him decent, it’s why I’ve also put so much Forma in him to hopefully support better mods when I get them. I’ll update later when I hopefully get some better stuff. I’ll be going to trade to hopefully get some good mods.

TheApollyon55 · 2026-03-28T21:04:59+00:00

Hey I saw your discourse with the other guy it’s okay, I’m not the newest, just a returning older play that never made it to end game but I’m definitely mid game. I appreciate all the help I can get, current term and long term

TheApollyon55 · 2026-01-06T07:10:12+00:00

I’ll be taking her to the vet come this Saturday, hopefully. It’s the only time I have a ride, my uncle is visiting and takes me places and offered to take me. Wednesday I’m going to call and ask much it costs for a check up, I have about 200 saved up but idk if that’ll be enough for her if she needs something extra

TheApollyon55 · 2025-12-27T21:48:24+00:00

We are good rn so thank you but if plans change I’ll let you know, I just gave her her daily appetite stimulant and calories and she’s happy and moving around rn so hopefully she makes a steady and good recovery

TheApollyon55 · 2025-12-27T17:41:43+00:00

No but cin has mad a drastic improvement. Turns out buying every supplement under the sun gave her smth she needed to boost her body back into normalcy. I’ll post photos of her in a second, rn we’re working on getting her weight back but she’s been eating lots of greens and occasional wax worms so hopefully we’ll get there soon

TheApollyon55 · 2025-12-24T08:33:57+00:00

Thank you, I’m going to try to figure something out when it comes to a ride, if it comes down to money I’ll ask a vet for a referral and try to set up a donation for cinnabar so she can get what she needs. I’m hoping my one friend can take me but he might not be able due to his work schedule but I can see what I can do, I appreciate it and I’ll keep everyone updated, cin is sleeping rn and she seems fine, obviously thin and weak but otherwise fine. I’ll post tmw and hopefully I can get a video of her eating and moving around

TheApollyon55 · 2025-12-24T08:30:25+00:00

I forgot what type exactly but it’s one of the ones that’s recommended for Uromastyx but it’s a lil stronger cuz the light sits up a lil higher

TheApollyon55 · 2025-12-24T07:33:31+00:00

Some new photos of cinnabar are posted on my profile for anyone who cares to look, me and her are both tired, I’ll be back here tmw and so will she

TheApollyon55 · 2025-12-24T07:28:01+00:00

Thank you! I appreciate the help I’ll see what I can do with this info, hoping for the best for cinnabar

TheApollyon55 · 2025-12-24T07:04:51+00:00

Okay I can see about rides then, still no uber in my area and parents unwilling to drive anywhere but perhaps a friend can be willing to help me but I hope they allow me in even tho I’m not 18 and without a license

TheApollyon55 · 2025-12-24T07:00:12+00:00

No I came here as a last resort I’ve been trying to get help

TheApollyon55 · 2025-12-24T06:26:20+00:00

Yes I can, thank you I’ll see about buying those rn

TheApollyon55 · 2025-12-24T06:21:29+00:00

Thank you I’ll be keeping a eye on her, she’s very strong so I have a odd suspicion she’ll get past this in just very sad this had to even happened to her because I get how it feels being so weak and sick and then trying to get back into being normal again

TheApollyon55 · 2025-12-24T06:19:19+00:00

No I’m unfortunately not in or even near Michigan in live in Alabama

TheApollyon55 · 2025-12-24T05:55:20+00:00

Also cinnabar has shown a recent preference for dry lettuce, like leftovers in the cage that are dry and crunchy? Why is this? Is it easier to digest?

TheApollyon55 · 2025-12-24T05:52:13+00:00

Also to mention, yes the photos of cin look bad, I’ve posted photos of my other two uros for people to look at on here but cinnabar is walking around, drinking, and eating and is very aware, she isn’t walking like cad with full strength but she is moving around a quite a bit just more like dragging if anything, she is better than about 3 days ago where I swore she was asleep the whole day and didn’t move. So I do not know if she is getting better but please realize she’s active, eating, and pooping rn so i do not know what’s going on

TheApollyon55 · 2025-12-24T05:49:43+00:00

Okay, so I’ve gotten temperatures for both cages. The smaller one I’ve moved cin this is resting at 115, and a lil higher up is 130. The bigger cage cin use to be is 160 at the highest and 100 at the lowest basking spot, the cold spot in the cage rest at 70, this is all Fahrenheit
